Nineteen years ago, four talented individuals, Karen Fairchild, Kimberly Schlapman, Jimi Westbrook, and Phillip Sweet, united to form Little Big Town. Since then, the quartet has gifted fans with 8 studio albums. Most recently, Little Big Town released The Breaker. The album, which has sold nearly 100,000 copies since February, features 12 songs that were written by a multitude of different writers. The first song they released from the album was “Better Man,” a track written entirely by former country starlet Taylor Swift.
Little Big Town has also received huge recognition from the record’s lead-off song, “Happy People.” Last month, they nailed their live performance of the song at the 2017 ACM Awards. On May 12th, they dropped a brand new music video for “Happy People.” Check it out below!
“Happy People” Lyrics
Happy people don’t cheat
Happy people don’t lie
They don’t judge or hold a grudge
They don’t criticize
Happy people don’t hate
Happy people don’t steal
Cause all the hurt sure ain’t worth
All the guilt they’d feel
If you wanna know the secret
Can’t buy it, gotta make it
You ain’t ever gonna be it
By takin’ someone else’s away
Never take it for granted
You don’t have to understand it
Here’s to whatever puts a smile on your face
Whatever makes you happy people
Happy people don’t fail
Happy people just learn
Don’t think they’re above the push and shove
They just wait their turn
They always got a hand
Or a dollar to spare
Know the golden rule what you’re goin’ through
Even if they’ve never been there
If you want to know the secret
Can’t buy it, gotta make it
You ain’t ever gonna be it
By takin’ someone else’s away
Never take it for granted
You don’t have to understand it
Here’s to whatever puts a smile on your face
Whatever makes you happy people
These days it ain’t always easy to find
They’re the ones who you want standing by your side
No time for greed, if they need some, give ’em a slice
And we’ll all be happy people
Well life is short
And love is rare
And we all deserve to be happy while we’re here
